Take on the Jersey reluctance to drop the masks

As the CDC relaxes mask recommendations for vaccinated people, New Jersey has continued to require them. Obviously no state has suffered like the Garden State has, so you can't blame them for being a bit gun-shy. The bigger issue is that if we don't know for sure what is safe, it only turns this into yet another political football.
I have always been of the opinion that wearing masks outside has always seemed a bit excessive but I'm still bit sure about spending time indoors when you honestly have no idea who is and who isn't vaccinated. Even so until somebody explains this Yankee situation, in bit quite sure anybody knows how effective the vaccines are from preventing anything.
